VerifyTOTP consumed the partial challenge before issueSession, so a store
fault on the session insert discarded a verified second factor and sent the
user back to the password step; the code was also marked used, so an
immediate retry would have been refused as a replay.
The claim stays atomic and first (two concurrent verifies can never both
reach issueSession). On issueSession failure the challenge is restored under
the same partial token — the client still holds it — and the accepted code
is released, so the retry completes the login without another password
step. auth gains PartialAuthStore.Restore and UsedTOTPCodeStore.Unmark, each
tested in the leaf package.
Characterization row flipped in the same commit: `VerifyTOTPFailurePaths/
session insert fails -> 500, the challenge and the code survive` — once the
trigger is dropped the same token and the same code answer 200 with a token.
